Beans…the more you eat…the more – healthy you get.

I like to use them in lots of ways – although simply in a bowl with a little butter and spices is fantastic – and these burgers were really good.

With added ground nuts to up the protein, the carbs are complex and fiber-filled. On a toasted whole grain bun or plain with all the fixings, these make a very filling meal. (They are even better as leftovers.)

Hi Linda, Your recipes are so amazing! The best on the net! I cannot wait to try these. I have finally discovered the world of beans through your recipes and love them Thanks again for all your creativity and hard work.

As usual, coming from Linda, this recipe looks wonderful. And nuts! An unexpected heart healthy surprise. I will try this…. just as soon as I get into full on cooking mode again.

Really great vegetarian recipes are not so easy to come by. So many that I have pulled from the net look hopeful, but turn out to be bland or dry. I know that whatever you put out there will not disappoint me or my family. Thank you and please, never stop!

I’ve made these burgers about 4 times this week!! I absolutely love them. I didn’t use a sweet curry, I used a regular yellow curry powder that you can find in the grocery store and it was soooo good! I also used 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper and 1/4 tsp of ancho chili pepper! Really yummy!

There are a couple things you could try for binding. A vegan site suggested using 2 tablespoons flax meal mixed with 2 tablespoons warm water. Let it sit for a minute to absorb.
Or 1/4 cup pureed tofu for 1 egg
If you don’t mind using flour, try another tablespoon of that, or pancake mix works well, too.
I hope you do try them, they are good…and even better as leftovers!

Hello sweet Sis!! I have to admit, I balked at the whole idea of a “bean burger”. As an admitted carnivore it just seems sacrilegious somehow. lol!

UNTIL I came over and looked at your incredible Photographs. OMG. I have gotta have me one of those. They look AMAZINGLY delicious!! Now, cheese would work on them right? lol!

BTW, ALL of your photographs are AMAZING. You really have a talent for it. I am surprised you haven’t been snatched up by some big company to photograph for them. No, wait, that would be AWFUL!!!! lol!

I agree with Deb, your photography skills are second only to your ability to manipulate healthy ingredients into amazing decadent delights! You MUST publish a book 1 day sweetheart! I know lots who will buy it!

Im chowing on these right now, SOOO GOOD!!! No bun, shredded some low fat white cheddar under then laid the burger on top of it. Such a pleasant spice in my mouth! Im SO glad Im the only one at my house so I can have these the rest of the week…Im impressed!

[…] When it comes to burgers, they don’t always have to be meat-based.

I made these and fell head over heels inlove with them! The only change I made was to add in a small amount of liquid smoke to the recipe. It made these that much more awesome. I’m sending you a big squeezy hug for posting this wonderful recipe. My whole meat eating family gobbled these right up! My youngst wanted left overs for lunch 🙂 thank you!!!
